I'm loving this alien head modelling series!
I really hope you complete the modelling and render it - it'd be awesome!

Btw:

@10:28 - There is a function in QT for that:

Build Corners

@13:00 - There is a flip triangulation function as well:

Flip Triangulation Tool

I have plans for a new tools for QuadFace Tools that acts like the native Line tool - but will try to create quads instead. Should save a few clicks.

You know I'm a big fan of this QuadFace stuff still learning the power of that QT tool

I might show the whole unwrapping in Blender with texture baking. Time is against me

I'll get some videos done - and eventually improve the documentation.

Sweet!

You're video deserves a thread of it's own - instead of buried down were.

In two-three weeks time, near the end of August. Basically got minor polish, bug-squashing, translations to do. Then website, manual and videos. phew!

By the way, I can no longer log in at your Vertex Tools URL. It won't even recognize my email address when I try to retrieve my password (even though I already know my password).

thomthom · 3 Aug 2012, 16:12

Did you change you email account?

Bob James · 3 Aug 2012, 16:44

No: See PM

Other plugins used or all V.T. (1.1?)?

I'm trying to find new ways (faster smoother cleaner) for modelling grading changes to sites. Maybe V.T. will help.

He's also using QuadFace Tools and ( either Subdivide and Smooth or Artisan ) for smoothing the low poly mesh.

Occationally he uses a tool there which I don't know the name of.
